A Representative. is A DELE
GATE,

The duties of a member of the
LEGISLATURE towards his constituency
is a seasonable subject upon which
to venture few remarks at the pre-
sent time. 1t is no uncommon thing to
hear candidates for election say that
they would decline to enter repre-
sentative body as "delegates"-not
so common here perhaps as in other
countries whose institutions we have
initiated in part or whole. The in
tention of representative legislation,
as the term clearly implies, is that
one or more shall be appointed by
the voice of the people as delegates
to represent the interests of the
MANY. The people do not send the
one to represent his own views or
interests, but they delegate him to
express their opinions aud advocate
their views in the councils OF the
state. The past has shown that
many representatives have entered
our Legislature merely to serve their
own purposes. They promised
plentifully on the hustings, and per-
formed nothing in the House-in
some instances treating their consti-
tuencies with a vulgar overbearing
insolence. In reality, the member
is delegated by the majority to vote
on all questions according to their
wish. They are supposed to know

Lights in n Chinese Town.

The streets of a Chinese town arc en-
tircly unlighted, SO every one moving
about carries a lantern or torch, and a
lantern is hung up outside every temple,
house and shop. Consequently there is
an enormous trade done in lanterns of
all sizes, from the huge balloons down
to the tiny little things no bigger than
oranges. They are made occasionally
of glass, but usually of paper or silk
stretched on silk bamboo and coated
with varnish, and the family surnames,
shop sign, title of temple, etc., are al
ways written with red paint on the body
of the lantern. The more respected the
family or shop the more elaborate and
solid the lantern and the handsomcr
the inscription. Men of no rcspccta-
bility, gamblers, sharpers and such like,
find that this practice makes identified
ton disagreeably easy and get over the
difficulty by carrying lanterns inscribed
with such common surnames as Smith
or Brown arc with us wang, the cquiva-
lent of King, is their commoncst sur
nance, or they use notices, which, be-
ing translated, would mean: GAS you

rying has become such habit in that
country that Chinaman never dreams
of leaving home at night without one,

Beecher and the Bedspreads.

Henry Ward Beccher: "The other day

stay there when on my first trip west.
We stopped late at night, and spent
Sunday there. There were two coach
loads of us, and the little o-story
brick tavern was nearly full when we
arrived. The best they could do for my
brother Charles and myself was to give
us a couple of 'shakedowns' in the dining
room. We slept late Sunday morning,
but finally waking up commenced to
talk. said: "Charles, Phi bet you
cen tell what they had at this hotel fol-
dinner yesterday what was itp he
asked. Roast beef l replied, basing
my Judgment on stale sort of odor that
pcrvaded the room. No, you're mistaken,
said he, shaking his head and shifting
at the covering of his bed; it was NUT.
tom We both stoutly maintained our
respective propositions, and falling to a
vigorous smelling of our bed clothes,
found the landlord had given us couple
of table-cloths for bedspreads, and Charles
had got the mutton cloth and | the

Limo will not injure tho seed sown on

Forty bushels per acre is one peck to the

narrowed in it very soon becomes car

which may exist on the seed. If seed

strong salt brine, and then well sprinkled
and mixed with dry air-slacked lime,
the growth of smut will DO prevented,
and there need DO no fear of injury to
the seed. L. is always best to scatter

and it has the same effect on peas and

has taken rank among the great cities OF

such, are more populous. London is
first, with A, 900, 900; Paris second, with

The experiments made to determine
the influence of root pruning on root
growth at the New York Station are of
general interest.
Market gardeners find transplanting
young plants of cabbage, tomatoes, ETC.,
while growing in the cold frame to be
of great advantage in assisting them to
endure the final removal to the open
ground. The question arose as to the
cause of the benefit thus ascribed to
process that would appear to be in itself
detrimental.
An experiment made during the spring
of 1885 at the station with cabbage and
tomato plants indicated that the benefit
chiefly arises from the longer roots being
broken in the transplanting, which
causes compact growth of fibres near
the base of the plant. This web Of fine
roots carries the incloscd soil with it in
the final transplanting, and thus many
of the feeding parts are in condition to
begin absorption at once in their new
home. The experiments showed that
precisely the same result may be secured
by sowing the seeds thinly in the frame
and then severely root-pruning the
young plants from time to time, taking
care to preserve favorable conditions for
growth.
Whether this checking OF the root
growth by trans planting or root pruning
is of itself beneficial or otherwise in Its
after effects upon the growth of the
plant is question, the solving of which
was attempted at the station with re-
suits that were only partially satisfac-
tory. In experiments with the young
plants of cabbage and corn, root pruning
seemed to increase the proportionate
development of the root as compared to
that of the top, but on the whole to
retard the growth.
In two experiments made in the open
ground with corn plants, one indicated
that any interference with the roots may
be prejudicial to the growth of the plant,
while the other showed slight increase
in growth following single moderate
root pruning, but a decided retardation
following a second cutting of the roots.
In every case where the root pruning was
performed in dry weather the results
appeared injurious to growth. The
subject is one of Importance, as it lies
at the basis of culture in our hoed crops.
We know that thorough preparation
of the soil before planting and a pulver-
lzed surface during the pruning season
are beneficial The effects of lacerating
the roots in the soil during the growth
of plants are not, however, so well
understood as they should be. 1t is to
be hoped tina the experiments the
coming season may give moro light on
the subject. = New York World.

MIX Test.

The only system yet suggested which
bids fair to be of practical application in
crcamerics, for the frequent or even daily
testing of milk brought in b. many pro-
duccrs, and for the daily testing of the
milk of each cow of herd, if this be
desired, is that by means of an oil-test
churn. This apparatus consists of many
glass tubes of the same size, into each of
which an equal quantity of milk is
placed, filling the tubes half to two
thirds full. The tubes are set upright
for the cream to rise; then they stand at
a temperature of sixty-five degrees or
over, until incipient souring comes on,
when the cream is supposed to be "ripc,"
or fit for churning. Then all the tubes,
nr, as we may now call them, little
churns, arc laid upon their sides or
fastened in frames, and violently shaken
in machine made for the purpose, until
it is evident that all the cream has been
churned into butter. This done, the
frames are removed, and being placed in
water heated to about 40 degrees, the
butter melts to limpid oil, which upon
cooling--the tubes standing perfectly
upright--may be easily measured, and
will show with considerable accuracy
the relative amount of butter in the diff
fercnt samples. 1t is clear that by this
process the milk of one day can be re-
ported upon one or two days thereafter,
and as only very small quantity of milk
is required, no loss can be rcckoned from
this cause. Only double or triple set
of tubes is needed to test the milk of
every producer every day. With skill,
attained by practice, even with the
rather crude apparatus which has been
used, quite satisfactory results have been
secured. The oil-tcst churn, now in its
infancy, promises to be an exceedingly
valuable aid to breeders and cow
keepers, as we'll as to those who buy
milk and cream, in enabling them to
determine the amount of fat, the most
valuable constituent of milk, in different
samples. - American Agriculturist.
